I'm either a fool or in love with muscadines and here is my question. I live in zone 6b and I lost every one of my 5 vines which I believe are Cowarts. Thet are in an open sunny spot. Last winter we had lows of 7 degrees and windchills of -18. I noticed the vines actually split. I wonder if I took the vines down from their trellis and covered them in straw for the winter if I could grow them? Or do I just need to move?

BEST ANSWER:Triumph is a zone hardier than Cowart, so you may have better luck with it. Anything you can do to protect the muscadine vines from winter temperatures will be a great help. The straw would be a nice insulator! I grow in a zone colder than you do and I have my muscadine in a container so I can prune it and move it indoors for winter.

of the two vines purchased one died almost immediately. Both were much smaller than expected. Now at the beginning of year two the remaining vine has started to take off. But it will be years before we see the "fruits" of our labor.

I've wanted to grow a muscadine for years and finally ordered one. I'm very well pleased with the growth and quality. It has set many clusters this spring and I can't wait to try them. Am enjoying watching it grow so healthy and beautiful. Five stars for Starks quality products and selection!
